The recipe is a bit too long, I hope you guys will not keep this recipe away, because pork lo mein is really tasty and you will love it after you have a try! I don’t see any lo mein on the menu of chinese restaurants. I guess most of you may never try that before. It’s not that hard to make one, so…try it and you can taste the noodle which is totally different from chow mein (fried noodle).
